Vince Young moving on from football

Free agent quarterback Vince Young has come to terms with the fact that his NFL career is likely over.

“It’s definitely official I think in my book,” Young said, per KXAN.com. “Unless we get a great opportunity, something guaranteed…other than that I’ve started moving forward in some things.”

“I love the NFL, will love the game always but I’m kind of moving forward and moving on right now.”

Young has said previously he would likely take a job with the University of Texas as an ambassador for the school once his playing career ended. That’s still part of his plan. “Right now we’re going through details,” Young said Saturday.

It’s a shame Young’s NFL career turned out the way it did. We wish him the best of luck going forward.
